My PC only seems to freeze during gaming sessions. Sometimes it can go hours without freezing, but sometimes only minutes. It doesn't freeze doing anything else, only gmaing. There's no BSoD, there's no noteworthy error/warning in Event Viewer, the temperature readings seem to be acceptable, and I'm at my wit's end :(

All my drivers are up to date, and my BIOS/UEFI is also running the latest firmware

Here are my specs. Any help you can offer would be great

OS: Windows 10 Professional 64-bit
CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K @ 36.GHz (Coffee Lake)
GPU: ZOTAC Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Ti AMP! Edition 8 GB
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2 * 8 GB DDR4 2132 MHz RAM
Mobo: ASRock Z370 Gaming K6
PSU: Seasonic M12II EVO 520 Fully Modular SMPS (80+ Bronze)

Thanks for your replies, I tried CrystalDiskInfo and it says my SSD and HDD drives are both in 'Good' health, which sounds ok @Zoel.fahmi and @close.css

My RAM part number is:
CMK8GX4M1D3000C16
Is that what you were looking for @Calvin7 ?

My SSD and HDD have been working fine so far without any issues. My SSD is my boot drive, and I don't have any games on that. My HDD is everything else.

i would suggest to boot a windows on HDD and unplug SSD so as last move.
also before that test a game without HDD connected (Only SSD)...

I had same problem just days ago..
I had a new gpu so i thought it was because of the new gpu but after i unplugged the HDD i got from my friend days ago, i didn't experience freezing yet.
so SSD/HDD are first suspects ;)

atleast with this way you can realize if your hard drives are fine or not.
